The striking enemies and perilous dungeons of Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty are dangerous to challenge alone, encouraging players to team up with their friends through the game's multiplayer modes. From recruiting random players online to inviting known warriors, the multiplayer of Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty has three diverse options to explore. Those looking for an extra hand to help traverse a tougher dungeon or a few allies to take down a stronger boss must first progress through part of the game's main story.

Players are able to unlock all multiplayer modes in the Chinese historical grind of Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty after completing the first mission of the game. A prompt called "Online Lobby" opens up when players travel to any Battle Flag once the first mission's objectives have been fulfilled. Here, players have access to each of the three modes mentioned earlier, which drastically affects their experience in fairly diverse ways. If players are having trouble finding the Online Lobby, it sits right under the "Travel" setting in the Battle Flag menu.
